A year and a half ago, I lived in a luxurious home that cost 1.5 mill. She went to an award-winning school, had everything she wanted and such,
but now that the stock market is low & my husband & I used our money trying to pay off the house, we had to move into a small home. (Each month for the expensive house was $7,000 including paying for the staff at my nail shop($2,000) and the bills at home)
After we moved, we told our daughter to conserve money.
My daughter ALWAYS lightly scolds my husband and says: "Why did you buy a 1.5 mill house? That's why we are so poor!"
She has friends who live in the hills and has play dates to their homes. When she comes home from her day of play, she says how beautiful the home is and how lucky her friend is and then talks about homes and foreclosures on the way home.
She is just ten years old! We have $200,000; left and she cries over how we are going to end up on the streets or foreclosures or apartments.
